I just had a completly random thought this morning that I thought was really funny!
What would you think if Wilt was all decked out as a street daddy? The big hat with huge the feather, the big fancy sunglasses, a long fancy coat, a ring on every finger, walking around with a jewled staff, driving a big fancy red car with the top down, and he started talking like a mac daddy gangsta? Seriously, what would you do? Oh yeah and by he way, the hat and suite is white. I'd think he'd look pretty "shmexy" myself. He looks good in white.

They did? What did it look like? One of my sixth-grade students drew a picture of Wilt wearing some spiffy sweats, talking on a cell phone. It was really good, if I must say so myself. He DID consider drawing Wilt all "pimped out', a la' Isaac Hayes in "Shaft", all retro-Seventies Bad M....you-know-what, but changed his mind because he thought I would be offended or bothered by him making Wilt "too much a Brothah", since I'm White(nearly 95% of my students are Black or Latino). I assured him that it wouldn't, but by that time, the school year was up and there was all this hassle with the end-of-year stuff, so he never got time to do another one. pitbulllady

Just on personality, I kinda like the idea of Wilt having a little "brothah" in him, JUST NOT Bad butt, gangsta, M-----------you-know-the-rest-. But I kinda like the idea of him being just a little bit "brothah", I dunno why I just do! You know, like the kind of cool brothah you can just hang with downtown and have fun. The kind of brothah who likes to shoot on the court, not IN the courtroom.

Not to delve into stereotypes, but I have to smile everytime I hear him say "my bad!" in Partying Is Such Sweet Soiree. It's very endearing for some reason ^_^ And yer, I did I picture of Wilt in formal wear a while back, but that's not quite the same as Mac Daddy attire is it? I agree though, he does look very good in white. Then again, redheads often do ^_- ~ The Prince

I like the thought of him being 'brothah' too. It's funny and cool. One time I drew him with a white tank, baggy black jeans, a red hat turned sideways and a gold chain around his neck holding an ipod. I called the picture iwilt lol.

It was a random thought I thought was funny. I know it's out of character, but I guess that's what makes it funny. Oh, and that picture with Wilt and the ipod sounds pretty cool! I can picture it.

OMG, it's not out of character! Wilt is totally a brothah!! I've always thought of him having been created by a kid from da hood. Yeah, I think him talkin like a mac daddy and dressing all gangsta would be the awesomest thing ever. Not to delve into stereotypes, but I have to smile everytime I hear him say "my bad!" in Partying Is Such Sweet Soiree. It's very endearing for some reason ^_^ I totally agree witchu. I love the way he says that. Ooh, can't believe I almot forgot to mention this, but before I watched "Beat with a Shtick" with captions, I didn't know Wilt was saying "I am not helping you hide!" I thought he said, "I am not helping you, aiight?" And I thought it was the coolest thing ever!!!

It would be out of character, but it would still be hilarious (and, in my opinion, cool) to see.
Feh, I can almost imagine a scenario with Bloo asking Wilt to dress that way, saying it will "help" him, and then taking him out with him just so he can possibly harass people who anger him and then pointing to Wilt as his "protection", despite the fact that Wilt would never hurt a fly. You have to admit, if you didn't know Wilt, you'd almost think he was really intimidating, especially if he was dressed like that, since he's a seven-foot red colored thing with one arm and a wonky eye. And the thing is, I can actually see Wilt allowing Bloo to do thus, although grudgingly (for Wilt), seeing as how he seemingly can't say no when asked to help someone, no matter how bad the plan may be.
And, totally off topic, that's one of the reasons I like Wilt, because of his almost (completely blind) generosity and kindness, since he honestly just wants the best for everyone.

Yeah, I agree...Wilt's a b-ball player, not a gangsta. However, I have to admit that it WOULD be hilarious seeing him dress like that or even hearing him saying the word 'brothah' if he ever got upset or peeved, especially when he referrs to himself as 'the Wilt-man' in the cartoon at certain times. XD I could see it now: "Don't mess with the Wilt-man, brothah." XP I have to admit that I'd giggle if I ever heard him say that! XP
